Police: Armed & hungry 13-year-old girl robs Burger King

Tampa, Florida - Tampa Police say a 13-year-old girl who just got out of Juvenile Detention robbed a Burger King Restaurant at knife point. But all she demanded was a cheeseburger.

This happened around 9:30 Friday morning at the Burger King at 2601 E. Hillsborough Ave.

Police say the 13-year-old girl was just released from the Juvenile Assessment Center at 8:00 a.m. They say shortly after arriving home, she picked up a kitchen knife and walked to a nearby Burger King while wearing pajamas, socks and no shoes.

Officers say she confronted an employee, Ian Bowers, at the rear entrance to the business.

She allegedly showed him her kitchen knife and yelled "Give me a burger!"

Bowers tried to run away, but the suspect pushed through the rear door and chased after him with her knife in the air.
